“I’m a happily married woman. Or rather I was
until a few weeks ago. This is my whole world
and it’s enough, or rather it was until a few
weeks ago.” Your heart dances. The world seems
strange and new. You want to laugh and skip and
fall forever… You are in love. You are in love with
the wrong person. “That’s how it all began. Just
by me getting a little piece of grit in my eye.”
